Through the #AskHerAgain campaign, SoCheers brings alive BHIM’S Mother’s Day message celebrating meaningful interactions with mothers.
MUMBAI, India, May 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — This Mother’s Day, BHIM App is encouraging people to look beyond predictable gifts and templated gratitude. Built around a deeply familiar cultural truth, where mothers almost always respond with ‘Nothing’ when asked what they want, the brand’s latest campaign, #AskHerAgain, urges people to pause, ask one more time, and pay closer attention to the needs mothers quietly set aside every day.
Conceptualised and executed by SoCheers, the campaign shifts the conversation away from symbolic celebration and towards attentiveness. At its core is a simple but emotionally resonant observation, for many mothers, ‘nothing’ is often less about not wanting anything, and more about being conditioned to ask for very little.
The campaign unfolded through creator-led storytelling, influencer conversations, and collaborations across fashion, food, travel, tech, and lifestyle categories. Across Instagram and LinkedIn, creators interpreted ‘Ask Her Again’ through everyday moments that reflected the emotional dynamics shared across Indian households, from mothers hesitating to express personal wants to families rediscovering the importance of simply listening a little more carefully.

While the cultural conversation remained at the forefront, BHIM App positioned itself quietly as an enabler, helping people turn intent into action, whether through meaningful gestures, thoughtful gifting, shared experiences, or everyday acts of care.
Speaking about the campaign, Lalitha Nataraj, MD & CEO, NBSL, said, “Mothers spend a lifetime putting everyone else first. We wanted to create something that didn’t just celebrate that, but gently questioned it too. #AskHerAgain is rooted in a moment most people instantly recognise. The moment you ask again, listen more carefully, and make space for her to want something for herself. Our role was simply to help make those moments easier to act upon.”
Siddharth Devnani, Co-Founder and COO, SoCheers, added, “Every year, Mother’s Day conversations tend to revisit the same emotional cues and executional patterns. This time, we wanted to begin with a behaviour so common that people rarely pause to think about it. Almost everyone has heard their mother say ‘nothing’ at some point. But once you stop taking that answer at face value, the entire dynamic changes. The campaign was designed to spark that moment of recognition.”
At a time when communication is often dominated by overt sentiment and formulaic gratitude, #AskHerAgain makes a quieter, more human point: sometimes the most meaningful thing you can do is simply ask one more time.
